The Monkey King Circlet is a special Familiar in Anime Vanguards designed specifically to make Gogeta much stronger. It isn’t a cheap upgrade, though. You’ll need to spend 1,000,000 Gems to obtain it, so most players will need to spend some time farming before they can afford it.
If you’re already using Gogeta as one of your main damage dealers, the Circlet can be a worthwhile long-term goal. It doesn’t just increase his damage either. The Familiar adds clones, slows, stuns, guaranteed critical hits, and additional damage scaling.
Anime Vanguards Monkey King Circlet Guide
The Monkey King Circlet is a Familiar for Gogeta.
Its main passive is Prankster, which gives Gogeta a massive 2,000% Damage bonus.
That alone makes the Familiar a major upgrade for Gogeta, but there are several additional effects attached to it.
Time to Get Serious
The Familiar gives Gogeta the Time to Get Serious ability.
Whenever Gogeta teleports, he leaves a clone behind at his previous location.
The clone remains active for 30 seconds and can copy Gogeta’s abilities.
The clone deals 50% less damage, but it still has access to several of Gogeta’s effects. It can copy his:
- Abilities
- Passives
- Memoria
- Familiar effects
Every third attack can also trigger an additional effect that slows enemies in range by 50% for 30 seconds.
Gogeta’s teleport can also stun nearby enemies for 2 seconds, giving him another way to control enemies while dealing damage.
Endless Me
Another major effect from the Monkey King Circlet is Endless Me.
Gogeta gains 50% more damage for each active clone.
This makes keeping your clones active especially important. The more clones you have available, the higher Gogeta’s damage becomes.
The clones are also guaranteed to land critical hits, which gives them consistent damage instead of relying on normal critical-hit chances.
Against enemies with Overshield, the clones can still deal 50% damage, allowing them to remain useful even against enemies that would otherwise reduce their effectiveness.
Dragon Spear Cost Reduction
The Monkey King Circlet also reduces the cost of the Dragon Spear upgrade by 30%.
This is another reason the Familiar works particularly well as part of a Gogeta-focused setup.
How to Get Monkey King Circlet
The main requirement is simple:
You need 1,000,000 Gems.
Once you’ve saved enough, you can spend the required Gems to obtain the Monkey King Circlet.
The difficult part is getting that much currency.
Best Way to Farm Gems
One of the methods recommended for farming Gems is Front War Zone.
Depending on your rewards and performance, you can make around 100,000 to 500,000 Gems per day.
Your exact earnings can vary, but this is the main activity to focus on if you’re specifically saving for the Familiar.
Front War Zone Gem Farming Strategy
If you’re new to Front War Zone, the general strategy is to build up a large army while improving your Barracks.
Start by sending one soldier to Nami to help with your income.
After that, focus on training more soldiers and moving several of them toward Speedwagon.
Your goal is to build your army while improving your Barracks.
Upgrade Your Barracks
Work toward getting your Barracks to Tier 2.
Once you’ve reached that point, save enough resources to build roughly 40 to 50 units.
Having a large army gives you enough strength to start pushing toward the enemy bases.
Don’t rush the attack before your army is ready. Building up your forces first makes the push much more reliable.
Attack the Enemy Bases
Once you have a large enough army, send your units toward the enemy bases.
Destroying the enemy bases is important because they can provide a large Gem reward.
Keep repeating the Front War Zone strategy and saving the Gems rather than spending them on other things if the Monkey King Circlet is your goal.
How Long Does It Take to Get 1 Million Gems?
The amount of time depends on how many Gems you’re earning each day.
If you’re making around 100,000 Gems per day, reaching 1,000,000 Gems would take roughly 10 days.
If you’re closer to 500,000 Gems per day, you could theoretically reach the requirement in around 2 days.
Your actual results will depend on your Front War Zone performance and available rewards.
The Monkey King Circlet is mainly worth considering if Gogeta is already an important part of your Anime Vanguards setup. The 2,000% Damage increase is massive, and the clone mechanics give Gogeta even more ways to deal damage and control enemies.
I wouldn’t recommend rushing toward the Familiar if your account still needs basic upgrades. Instead, build a strong Gem farming setup first and use Front War Zone to steadily work toward the 1,000,000-Gem requirement.
Once you have the Gems saved and Gogeta is one of your main units, the Monkey King Circlet becomes a much more worthwhile investment.
